I m It for The Term of By MARCUS CL.ARICI3 CHAPTUU II. In tlu breathless stillness of n tropical nfternoon, when tho air was hot ami heavy, anil the sky hraicn and cloud Icm, the shadow of the Malabar lay nolltary on tho surface of the glittering I'M. Tho sun hail Jut pot low enough to peep beneath an awning ami awaken a young man, In an undress military mil form, who was doling on a coll of rwK. "Hang It!" satd he, rising, with the weary sigh of a mau who has nothing to do, "I mmt havo been asleep;" and then, holding lijr a stay, be turned about nnd looked down Into the waist of tho ship. Save for the man at tho wheel and tho guard at the Quarter rail Inc. he was nlone on tho deck. On the forecastle, pome half-doaen soldiers wore playing at card', or watching the fishing Hues hanging orer the eat head. So far the appearance of the vessel differed In nowise from that of an ordi nary transport. Hut In the waist a curious night presented Itself. It was ns though one had built n cattle pen there. At tho foot of tho foremast, nnd at the quarter deck, a strong bar ricade, loop-holed nnd furnished with doors for Ingres and egre. ran across the deck from bulwark to bulwark. Out side this cuttle pen an armed sentry Klood on guard; Inside, standing, sitting or walking monotonously, within range of tho shining barrel in the arm-chest, vera some sixty men and boys, dressed In uniform gray. The men and boys were prisoner and the cattle pen was their exercise ground. Their prison was down the main hatchway, and the bar ricade, continued down, made Its aide vail. It was the fag-end of the two hours' oxercle. graciously permitted each af ternoon, nnd the prisoners were enjoy ing themselves. It was not. perhaps, ao pleasant as under the awning, but that t-acred shade was only for such great men at the captain and his officer. Sur geon Pine. Lieut. Maurice Frere and, most Important personage of all, Cap tain. Vkkivs and his wife. That the convict leaning against the bulwark would like to bare been abb? to gel rfcl of his enemy, the sun. for a moment, was probable enough. Ilia ma panlna, sitting on the combings of the main hatch, or crouched in carele fashion on the shady side of the barri cade, were laughing and talking, with merriment hideous to contemplate; but lie, with cap pulled over his brows, ami hands thrust Into the pockets of his coarse gray garments, held aloof from their dismal Joviality. The lowbrowed. coarse-featured ruf fians grouped about the deck cast many n leer of contempt at the solitary figure, but their remarks were confined to ges tures only. There are degrees In crime, nnd Itufus Dawes, the convicted felon, who bad but escaped the callows to toil for all his life in irons, was a manof mark. He had beeu tried for the rob hery and nlurder of Lord Itellaiis. Tho friendless vagabond's lame story of find ing on the Heath a dying man would not hare availed him but for the curi ous fact sworn to by the landlord of the Spaniards' Inn. that the murdered no bleman had shaken his head when asked if the prisoner was his aasln. The -vagabond was acquitted of the murder, hut condemned to death for the rob Iiery, and London, which took tome In terest In the trial, considered him for tunate when his sentence waa commuted to transportation for life. The young man on the deck caught night of the tall figure leaning against the bulwarks, and It gave him an excuse to break the monotony of faU employ ment. "Here, you!" be called out, "get out of the gangway!" Itufus Dawes waa net In tho gang way was. In faet, a good two feet from It but at the sound of Lieut. Freda's voire he started, and Meat obediently toward the hatchway. "I'll make some of you fellows smart, if you don't hare a care," went on the nngry Frere.. "Insolent blackguards!" And then the noise of the sentry, on the quarter deck below Mm, grounding arms, turned the current of his thoughts. A thin, tall, soldier-like man, with a cold blue eye, and prim features, came out of tho cuddy below, handing out a fair-haired, affected, mincing lady of middle ago. Captain Vlekers, of Mr. 1'rero's regiment, ordered for service In Van DIemen's Land, was bringing hi lady en deck to get an appetite for din ner. Mrs. Vlekers was forty-two, and had beeu a garrison belle for eleven weary years before aha married prim John .Vickera. The marriage was not a happy one. Vickera found his wife exjrava Kant, Tain, and anapplaa. and she found him harsh, disenchanted, and common place. A daughter, born two years af ter their marriage, was the only link that bound the Ill-assorted pair. Vlekers idolized little Sylvia, and upon the rec ommendation of a long sea voyage for his falling health, he insisted upon bringing the child with him. Mrs. Vlekers fol lowed her husband with the best grace die could muster. When fairly out to (tea she employed the intervals between Molding her daughter ami her maid, in fascinating the boorish young lleuteuant, Maurice Frere.. Fascination was an Integral portion of Julia Vlekers' nature; admiration was nil she lived for; and even In a convict ship, with her husband at her elbow, she must flirt, or perish of mental liiani tlou. There was no harm In tho crea ture. She was simply a vain, middle nged woman, and Frere took her atten tions for what they were worth. Run ning down the ladder, cap lu hand, he offered his assistance. "Thank you, Mr. Krere. Thoso hor rlblo ladders. , I really he, he! quite tremble at them. Ilotl Yos, dear me, most oppressive, John, the camp stool. Vrny, Mr. Frcre oh, thauk you! Syl via) Sylvia! John, hate you my smell Inr salte? Still a calm, I aupposel U'hese dreadful calms!" Vlekers, with a bow to Frere, saw his Wife up the ladder, and then turned for hfa daughter. She was a delicate looking child of sr years old, wth blue His Natural Life ARICI3 eyes and bright hair. I.lttlo Miss Syl via was prhllcgcd to go anywhere and do anything, nnd even conviction shut Its foul- mouth In her presence. Unti tling to her father's side, the child chat tered with nil the volubility of flattered self-esteem. She ran hither and thither, asked question. Invented answers, laughed, sung, gamboled, peered Into the compass case, felt in tho pockets of the mau at the helm, (tut her tiny hand Into the big palm of tho o ill cor of tho watch, even ran down to the quarter deck and pulled tho coat tails of the sentry on duty. At last, tired of running about, she took a little striped leather I II from the bosom of her frock, and. calling to her father, threw It up to him. lie returned It. and shouting with laugh ter, clapping her hands between each throw, the child kept up the game. In the midst of this mirth the ottlcer of the watch. glanclHg round the fast crimsoning horlson, paused abruptly, and. shading hi eye with his hand, looked out intently to the westward. Frere. who found Mr. Vb-ker's conver sation a tittle tiresome, and had been glancing from time to time at the com panion, ns though In expectation of some one appearing, noticed the nctkm. "What i It. Mr. Itest?" "I don't know exactly. It wok to me like a cloud of smoke." And taking the glass, ho swept the horlion. "Let me see," said Frere, and he looked alo. On the extreme horizon, Just to the left of the sinking sun, rested a tiny black cloud. The gold ami crimson, splashed all nbout the sky. had over flowed around It, and rendered a clear view almost Impossible. "I can't quite make It out," says Frere, handing back tW telescope. "We can see as ihwii as the sun goes dawn a little." Ily and by Captain lllunt appeared, ami taking the glass from hi oiDeer. looked through it long and carefully. Then the mlaten top was appealed to, and declared that he could see nothing; and at last the sun went down with a Jerk, as though It had slipped through a slit In the sea, ami the black spot, swal lowed up In the gathering base, was seen no more. As the sun sank, the relief guard came up the after hatchway, and the relieved guard prepared 'to superintend the de scent of the convicts. At this moment Sylvia mled her ball, which, taking advantage of a sudden lurch of the ves sel, hopped over the barricade, nnd roll ed to the fret of Itufus Dawes. The bright spot of color rolling across the white deck caught his eye; stoop ing mechanically, he picked up the bait anil stepped forward to return It. The door of the barricade was open, and the sentry did not notice the prisoner pass through It. In another Instant he was on the sacred quarter deck Heated with the game, her cheeks aglow, her eyes sparkling, her gulden hair afloat, Sylvia bad turned to leap afttr her plaything, but even as she turned, from under the shadow of -the cuddy glided a round white arm; ami a shapely hand caught the child by the sash and drew her back. The next mo ment the young man In gray had placed the toy In her hand. Maurice Frere, descending the lad der, had not witness! this little Inci dent; on reaching the deck, be saw only the unexplained presence of the aenvict uniform. "Thank you," said a voice, as Itufus Dawea stooped Iwfore the pint ting Syl via. Tho convict raised hi eye ami saw a young girl of eighteen or nineteen years of age, tall anil well developed, who, dressed in a loose-sleeved robe of some white material, was standing in the doorway. She had black hair, colled around a narrow ami flat head, n small foot, white skin, well-shaped hands, end large, brown eyes; and as she smiled at him her scarlet ll;s showed her white, even teeth. He knew her at once. She wan Sarah I'urfoy, Mrs. Vkker's maid, but he nev er had been so close to her before; and It seemed to hltn that he was In the pres ence of some strange tropical flower, which exhaled a heavy nnd intoxicating perfume. Itufus Dawea was seize. 1 from behind by bis collar ami flung with a shock upon the deck. Leaping to his feet, his first Impulse was to rush upon his as sailant, but he saw the ready bayonet of the sentry gleam, and he check! him self with an effort, for his assailant was Mr. Maurice Frere. "What do you here'" asked that gen tleman. "You lazy, skulking hound, what brings you here? If I catch you putting your foot on the quarter deck again I'll give you a week In Irons." Itufus Dawes, pale with rage and mortification, opened his mouth to Jus tify himself, but he allowed the words to die on his lips. What was tho ut1 "Go down below, and remember what I've told you," cried Frere; and compre hending at once what had occurred, be made a mental tnlnuto of tho name of the defaulting sentry. The convict, wiping the blood from his fuce, turned on bin heel without a word, and went back through the strong oak door Into his den. Frere leaned for ward nnd took the girl's shapely hand with an easy gesture, but she drew It away, with a flash of her black eyes, "You coward!" slje said. The stolid soldier closo behind thorn heard It and his eye twinkled. Frere bit his thick lips with mortification, ns he followed the girl Into the cuddy, Sarah I'urfoy, however, taking the as tonished Sjltia by the hand, gilded Into her mistress' cabin with n scornful laugh and abut the door behind bur, OIIAITBK III. Convlctism having been safely got un der hatches, and put to bed in It gov ernment allowance of slxtceu jnehe of space per man, cut n llttlo short by exi gencies of shipboard, the cuddy was wont to pass some tiot unpleasant even ings. Mrs. Vlekers, who was poetical and owned a guitar, was also musical, uud sung to It. Captain Dluut was a Jovial, coarse fellow; Surgeon I'lue had a mania for story telling, while If Vlck era was sometimes dull, l'rero was al ways hearty. Moreover, tho tabic was well served, and the sultry evenings passed nwny with a rapidity of which the wllft boasts 'tween decks had no conception. On this particular even lug, howeter, (ho cuddy was dull, Din tier fell Hat, nnd conversation languish ed. "No sign of a hroeso, Mr. Host J" asked lllunt, as the lirst titllccr emtio In ninl took his sisit. "None, sir." "These ho he! nw fill calms," savs Mr. Vlekers. "A week, Is It not, Cap tain lllunt r "Thirteen days, mum," growled lllunt. "It Is Infamous the way they crowd thee shlits. Here we Jme over two hundred souls on hoard, and not boat room for half of 'em." "Two hundred souls! Surely not," says Vleker. "Ity the regulations" "One hundred and eighty convicts, fifty soldiers, thirty In ship's crew, all told, and how many T one, two, three seven lu the cuddy. How many do you make that?" "We are Just n little crowded this time," )s Host. "It Is ery wrong." say Vleker, iwmipously. "very wrung. My the regu lations lint the subject of the regulations was even more distasteful to the.cuddy than Flue's Interminable anecdote, ami Mrs. Vlekers hastened to ehanwe the subject. "Are you tint Iteirttly tired of this dreadful life. Mr. Frere?" "Well. It Is not exactly the life I had hoped to lead." said Frere. rub bing a freekhwl hand over hi stubborn red hair; "but I must make tho bet of It." "Y)s, indeed." said the lady. In that uhdned manner with which one com ment upon a woll-kiiown incident, "It must have been a great shock to ynu to lm so suddenly deprived of so largo a fortune." "Not only that, but to find that tho black sheep who got It all sallfsl for India within a week or my uncle's dxflth! Ijidy Devitie got a letter frum him on the day of the ftiuentl to say that ho had taken his paaxe H the Hydaspos for Calcutta, and never meant to cstmo back again." "Sir Ulcbard Devlne left mo other children r' "No; only this mysterious Dick, whom I never saw, but who must have bated we." "Dear, dear! These family quarrels are dreaduft thin. Poor l.ady Devlne, tu io in one usy a nustMimi ami a eon!" "And the next morning to hear of the murder of ber cousin! You know that we are connected with the llelhtsl fam ily. My aunt father marrird a sister of tbe second l.onl IWUsls." "Indeed. That was a horrible mur der. So you think that the dreadful man you pointed out tho other day did It?" "The Jury seemed to think not." said Mr. Frere. with a laugh; "but I don't know anybody else who could have a motive for it. lloweer. I'll go on deck and have a smoke." "I wonder what Induced that old hunks of a shipbuilder to try nnd cut off his only son In favor of a cub of that sort," said Surgeon I'lue to Cai tain Vlekers, as the broad back of Mr. Maurice Frere disappeared up the com panion.

"And tbe son's away on the sea some where." said Mr. Vlekers, "ami knows nothing of bis good fortune. It hi quite a romance." "I am glad that Frere did not get the money," said I'lwe. grimly sticking to bis prejudice; "I have seldom seen n faee I liked tees, even among my )el-1 tow Jaekets yonder. "Oh, dear, Doctor Fine!
